Don't Explain

Arthur Jr. Herzog, Billie Holiday

Lyrics Translation

Hush now, don't explain
I know you ain't staying
I'm glad you're back
Don't explain

Quiet, don't explain
You've mixed with some dame
Skip that lipstick
Don't explain

You know that I love you
And what love endures
Nothing rates above you
When I'm so completely yours

Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right and wrong don't matter
When you're with me, sweet

Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain

You know that I love you
And what love endures
Nothing rates above you
When I'm so completely yours

Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
but, right and wrong don't matter
When you're with me, sweet

Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours, love
Don't explain

Hush now, don't explain
Fica caladinho, não explica nada
I know you ain't staying
Eu sei que você não vai ficar
I'm glad you're back
Estou feliz que você está de volta
Don't explain
Não explica nada
Quiet, don't explain
Silêncio, não explica nada
You've mixed with some dame
Você arrumou rabo de saia com alguma mulher
Skip that lipstick
Esquece esse batom
Don't explain
Não explica nada
You know that I love you
Você sabe que eu te amo
And what love endures
E do que o amor é capaz de suportar
Nothing rates above you
Nada é mais importante que você
When I'm so completely yours
Quando eu sou completamente sua
Cry to hear folks chatter
Chorando ao ouvir as pessoas fofocando
And I know you cheat
E eu sei que você me trai
Right and wrong don't matter
Certo e errado não importam
When you're with me, sweet
Quando vocês está comigo, meu bem
Hush now, don't explain
Fica caladinho, não explica nada
You're my joy and pain
Você é minha felicidade e minha dor
My life's yours, love
Minha vida é sua, amor
Don't explain
Não explica nada
You know that I love you
Você sabe que eu te amo
And what love endures
E do que o amor é capaz de suportar
Nothing rates above you
Nada é mais importante que você
When I'm so completely yours
Quando eu sou completamente sua
Cry to hear folks chatter
Chorando ao ouvir as pessoas fofocando
And I know you cheat
E eu sei que você me trai
but, right and wrong don't matter
Certo e errado não importam
When you're with me, sweet
Quando vocês está comigo, meu bem
Hush now, don't explain
Fica caladinho, não explica nada
You're my joy and pain
Você é minha felicidade e minha dor
My life's yours, love
Minha vida é sua, amor
Don't explain
Não explica nada
Hush now, don't explain
Cállate ahora, no te expliques
I know you ain't staying
Sé que no te quedas
I'm glad you're back
Me alegra que estés de vuelta
Don't explain
No te expliques
Quiet, don't explain
Silencio, no te expliques
You've mixed with some dame
Te has mezclado con alguna dama
Skip that lipstick
Omite ese lápiz labial
Don't explain
No te expliques
You know that I love you
Sabes que te amo
And what love endures
Y lo que el amor soporta
Nothing rates above you
Nada te supera
When I'm so completely yours
Cuando soy completamente tuyo
Cry to hear folks chatter
Lloro al oír a la gente charlar
And I know you cheat
Y sé que engañas
Right and wrong don't matter
Lo correcto e incorrecto no importa
When you're with me, sweet
Cuando estás conmigo, dulzura
Hush now, don't explain
Cállate ahora, no te expliques
You're my joy and pain
Eres mi alegría y dolor
My life's yours, love
Mi vida es tuya, amor
Don't explain
No te expliques
You know that I love you
Sabes que te amo
And what love endures
Y lo que el amor soporta
Nothing rates above you
Nada te supera
When I'm so completely yours
Cuando soy completamente tuyo
Cry to hear folks chatter
Lloro al oír a la gente charlar
And I know you cheat
Y sé que engañas
but, right and wrong don't matter
Pero, lo correcto e incorrecto no importa
When you're with me, sweet
Cuando estás conmigo, dulzura
Hush now, don't explain
Cállate ahora, no te expliques
You're my joy and pain
Eres mi alegría y dolor
My life's yours, love
Mi vida es tuya, amor
Don't explain
No te expliques

Je sais que tu ne restes pas
I'm glad you're back
Je suis content que tu sois de retour
Don't explain
N'explique pas
Quiet, don't explain
Silence, n'explique pas
You've mixed with some dame
Tu t'es mêlé à une dame
Skip that lipstick
Oublie ce rouge à lèvres
Don't explain
N'explique pas
You know that I love you
Tu sais que je t'aime
And what love endures
Et ce que l'amour endure
Nothing rates above you
Rien ne vaut plus que toi
When I'm so completely yours
Quand je suis si complètement à toi
Cry to hear folks chatter
Je pleure d'entendre les gens bavarder
And I know you cheat
Et je sais que tu triches
Right and wrong don't matter
Le bien et le mal n'ont pas d'importance
When you're with me, sweet
Quand tu es avec moi, doux
Hush now, don't explain
Tais-toi maintenant, n'explique pas
You're my joy and pain
Tu es ma joie et ma douleur
My life's yours, love
Ma vie est à toi, amour
Don't explain
N'explique pas
You know that I love you
Tu sais que je t'aime

Cry to hear folks chatter
Je pleure d'entendre les gens bavarder
And I know you cheat
Et je sais que tu triches

When you're with me, sweet
Quand tu es avec moi, doux

Cry to hear folks chatter
Piango per sentire la gente chiacchierare
And I know you cheat
E so che tradisci
Right and wrong don't matter
Giusto e sbagliato non contano
When you're with me, sweet
Quando sei con me, dolce
Hush now, don't explain
Taci ora, non spiegare
